01. Magic Bullet & Twizz with Neil Crud - Officer Kitty And The God Of Love (5:28)

From the album "Cruditas" (Link 2 Wales Records)

02. Mean Flow - Man + Machine: In Harmony / In Discord Part VI: The Singularity (6:15)

The work of incredibly prolific (seriously - it's January 25th at the time of writing and he already has five new albums out this year!) electro-experimentalist Theofil Tsiolakakis from Thessaloniki in Greece, taken from our 2023 collaborative split album...

03. Humanfobia - The Queen Is Dead (2:02)

Based in Rancagua, Chile, this is the duo of Sábila Orbe and Mist Spectra, who also record under the name of Filmy Ghost. They create many dark sounds in the fields of witch house and vapour goth, neither of which me or Skit know anything about coz our young and cool days are a long way behind us. Oh, they are also the couple behind the Cian Orbe and Internet Daemon netlabels. Chop chop busy busy work work bang bang...

04. Klopsmasjien - The Magic Buzz (4:22)

I first came into contact with Netherlands based Tonio Rumoer via the EFSPACM group (Ensemble For Sound Poetry And Contemporary Music) on Facebook, whilst taking part in his BenchesBenches project, the visionary concept that brought "Waiting For Wyre Rose" to life. This is a piece of enhanced field recording he created specially for our "Communitas" series. It's bees, what's not to love?

05. DJ ANY WAY - Into The Atmosphere That Feeds It (8:02)

Ditto with Gordon Way in Toronto, Canada, for whose video we recorded the track, "Here", as part of an EFSPACM project in November 2020. We later worked together on "Eleven Experiments In Trisecting Them" and continue to love his offbeat visual stylings. He makes some decidedly good sounds too...

06. RDKPL - Abstrakat Noisranda 01 (5:11)

Ear-grinding Czech noise artist, wonderfully uncomfortable listening. By some rather strange coincidence, he has just released (like 12 days ago!) a collaborative album I knew nothing about prior to playlisting the show, called "Gordek", with... wait for it... DJ ANY WAY! Small world. Though now I give it some serious thought, I wouldn't want to walk it...

07. John Wills - Fowlsheugh (4:33)

We first came across John Wills when he was making the 2020 podcast series , "The Great John Cage Project - In Lockdown", the eight episodes of which are very worth checking out, and for whom we can thank for the inspiration for our "Cage Variations" EP. Not only a big fan of serious field recording, John also makes them, and this is one from the ambisonic maetro himself, recorded at the Fowlsheugh RSPB Scotland nature reserve. John is more recently making music in the duo, Pumajaw, with partner  Pinkie Maclure...

08. {AN} Eel - Do Wah Diddy Do (2:24)

More from the very experimental vocalist based up there in Toronto, Canada, putting his own avant garde vibe on the age old art of scat. Not to be confused with the Manfred Mann classic, which bears no resemblance at all. Funnily enough, he's just put out (New Year's Day) a collaborative album called "Uvula Love" with DJ ANY WAY too. I didn't know about that one prior to playlisting the show either. This is getting too trippy...

09. Pszren - Magid (9:39)

A beautiful experimental chorale here from another colleague from the EFSPACM group, also recorded specially for our "Communitas" series. His Bandcamp is confusingly in the name of Toshiro Koreshina from Kyoto, Japan, though my suspicion remains that he is really Piotr Szreniawski from somewhere in Poland, otherwise he'd be called Tkores, which I could have had a much better stab at pronouncing...

10. Muff Dada - Entropy (3:26)

And we finish the show where we started (eventually), Greece, but Athens this time, home of a band we only recently discovered when they sent us a DL code for their album, "Entropy". The album opens with a beautiful piece of female vocal driven trip hop, like a sweeter version of Portishead meets Morcheeba, right up my street, but not really appropriate for an electro-experimental show. Luckily, however, the title track is. Figured it would make a perfect show closer before Nurse Sammi came to take me and Skit back to the home...
